A: When we watch a game that an opponent is playing in, it is all business. When I say we, I mean Phil Glover, our other linebacker; we watch for what the other linebackers and linemen do. Sure, we may get a pizza and have a few sodas, but for the most part it is like getting a scouting report.

Q: What did you do in the off-season?

A: I stayed in San Jose after last season. I had minor surgery on my knee and went through a rehabilitation program. I also did a lot of community service, especially volunteer work with the Boys & Girls Clubs. It was great working with youth. They look up to athletes and you do make an impact in their lives.

Q: What are your favorite foods?

A: I keep it simple. Steak and potatoes is fine with me. When my fiancée [Cheyenne Copenhaver] comes out from St. Louis, we like to go to a nice restaurant in San Jose and get some good pasta and steak. She works as an operations manager with an auto warranty administration company.

Q: What do you expect this season working with Phil Glover?

A: First, I am blessed to be healthy this season. After my wrist surgery and playing with a cast, I ll be glad to put in a full season. I actually start at Jack linebacker and Phil at the Mack. Sometimes we trade off. It depends on who is hot at the moment; it has worked out great. We just like to keep the refs on their toes.
